For a while now I have been reading scanned / digital books on a
laptop screen.
Some of these books are out of print nowadays (or otherwise hideously
expensive to purchase
in printed form).
Even after setting the glare and contrast factors to a comfortably low
intensity, i get severe
headaches after reading text from a screen for extended periods of
time (its not my
eye sight - i got that checked )
Any suggestions for more comfortable alternatives?
Also it is good to think of conciously blinking to rewet the eye. In
front of computer screens people blink three times less often than off
screen (and even less when constantly reading one text). That causes
eyes to dry out. They fatigue and you get headaches. Since one tends to
forget this I also use every now and then eye drops which contain only a
saline solution (lachrymal liquids) to counter this.
